Spectrum Repeater CW ID'er Bipolar Prom > If the IDer has a PROM then little can and should be done > to go another way...a new PROM.
Spectrum sells a replacement prom from about $55, which is kind of out of line for a price... but at least it's available. You can find/ask someone with a bipolar prom burner to make a new chip for you. But you have to find the chip and figure out how to map your call sign into the new part. One can also replace a Prom with an Eprom using a small adapter daughterboard, which is a path I've used many times. You need only have the eprom, programmer and set up the programming. Prom daughter/adapter boards run under $20 each... Another option would be to disable the factory ID'er and install an ID-O-Matic or similar ID unit. cheers, skipp
